Become a knowledge glutton. Read, listen, observe, and remember. The more inform ation you can store in your mind, the more connections you can make. That does n ot necessarily mean you should spend most of your time reading! You can take an active approach to learning no matter what you are doing. Anyone can watch a car toon and be none the wiser. A genius can watch a cartoon and think about what ki nd of animation is used, how the characters are developed, how the plot relates to real life, why the cartoon is popular, and practically write a dissertation d iscussing various facets of that single cartoon! 2When you learn something new, try to apply it and connect it to what you alread y know. You will remember the information better and you might come up with a ne w idea. For example, if somebody shows you a new kind of jam, think about how it would taste on your favorite type of sandwich. If you're trying to learn a lang uage, use what you have learned to write or say new sentences that aren't in the book. 3Learn about Bloom's Taxonomy. Bloom's Taxonomy is a breakdown of the six levels of thinking, from the lowest level to the highest. Can you challenge yourself t o think about everything in your life at the deepest level? Knowledge: Accepting and believing a fact. Knowing 2 + 2 = 4, doesn't mean you k now what 2 + 2 = 4 means. Application: Knowing how to use the fact. You can determine that 2 cats plus 2 c ats equals 4 cats. You don't know what 2 + 2 = 4 means, but you can apply it. Comprehension: Understanding a fact: You understand the concept of addition and how 2 + 2 = 4. Analysis: Breaking down information into its parts. 4 - 2 =2 ; (1 + 1) + (1 + 1) = 2 + 2 = 4 Synthesis: Creating something new. (2 + 2) + (2 + 2) = 4 + 4 Evaluation: Discussion of the merits of 2 + 2 = 4. 4 Learn how you learn. Different people learn differently. Major ways of learning include seeing, hearing, talking, listening, touching, manipulating, reading, in terpreting ideas and writing. Feel free to doodle, talk out loud, or touch and p lay with the item you're thinking about. Any of these activities can help facili tate your thought process. See How to Make the Most of Your Learning Style 5 Embrace change, uncertainty, and doubt. It is on these edges of knowledge that i nnovation and discovery happen. Question conventional wisdom. Most people will v iolently oppose challenges to "conventional" wisdom. They will ignore facts that challenge their beliefs. Geniuses think critically. They do not ignore facts, e ven when they conflict with conventional wisdom. Below are some examples. People once believed the world was flat. Eratosthenes (400 B.C.) showed it was r ound. Ptolemy's view of the solar system held sway for 2000 years. Galileo was forced to recant his view that the Sun was at the center. 6 Be prolific. Try for quantity before quality. To produce exceptionally good work , do a lot of whatever you're doing. It increases your chances for success and i t means you will get more practice along the way. It also takes the pressure off , knowing that while an effort may be your first, it will likely not be your las t. Most geniuses in history, whatever they were doing, did a LOT of it, and not all of it was genius! There is a theory that to become a "master" in any subject, you need 10,000 hour

s of practice. Professional orchestra players, computer programmers all demonstr ate this idea. (Citation: Malcom Gladwell's book Outliers, 2009, but see also Cr eativity: Genius and other Myths, Weisberg, 1986) 7Think differently. You are different. You think differently. Every kind of geni us IS different and individual. And every kind of opinion (even if it sounds com pletely stupid) has something true. If you are the first with anything you are A LWAYS called an idiot by someone. And if your idea is successfull you are called a genius. Being a genius depends on societys view. 8If people who are older call you stupid or so think about it. But it does not h ave to mean that they are right. You have only another point of view. You do not see the things they see with their life experience. But you are not influenced. Everyone is a genius in some kind because everyone is individual.
